**I know this is not true, but I feel like im the only one who actually saw the game. Juan's red card put us in a bad spot 20 mins in. Down a man and a goal. How is the the coach's fault? Right off the bat we are in a terrible situation for something that I did not think was a straight red. A penalty and a yellow, yes absolutely. Anyways, not the coach's fault.

**Even despite being a man down we still managed to control the tempo of the game and IMO we imposed our game on a team with 11 men. We just could not break through into the box and get a goal that we deserved. The team worked very hard. You could see it out there. Everyone was running their ass off. Again, with 10 men it was always going to be near impossible to really break in and get a goal.

**The result was terrible but the team showed quite a bit of character and that is how youths develop and learn. Am I the only one who feels this way?

nah, most of us here agree it's not the coach's fault. it's just Camurrìa who's been against LE since the start (sorry for singling you out but it's true ). there were definitely a lot of positives away from the players who actually STAYED on the pitch. we still managed to control the game with 10 men. the viola fans were booing their team even when they were 2-0 up. fiorentina really did not deserve to win. they scored due to individual player failures (juan, bojan, gago) rather than their own brilliance

today is not about luis enrique for once. i still don't believe in him yet, but we're still better off with him than without. and today definitely was not his fault. i applaud him for not making any player changes after juan's red card

Didn't watch the game, glad I didnt, i'd be pissed off..

Can't blame Enrique for the result because it was a game decided by the episodes (penalties, red cards). Juan's lack of match fitness showed again, Gago completely lost his cool after his first yellow, Bojan was just plain dumb though the ball might have been going out.

But I do blame Enrique for the substitutions. Around the 55th-60th minute, after no real promising signs in attack, I would've taken off Cicinho and Pjanic for Simplicio and Totti. Instead, he waited too long and, in a strange move, put Angel in midfield. He failed to really revitalize the team yesterday. I usually defend him, but he did make some mistakes in this match.

i honestly wouldn't mind if osvaldo hits bojan in the face after what he did

I'm more pissed about Gago. He knew he was on a yellow, yet still went in with no chance to get the ball. He let all the pressure get to him.

I felt bojans reaction to what he did shows how much passion the kid has. He was so upset with himself he was litterally screaming in the tunnel as he walked off. If he was this upset it tells me how badly he wants to do well. I believe passion is the first step to becoming great and from what I can see he has it in abundance.

Let's not be too hard on the kid. He's still adapting to Italy. He will get there.

Not to mention losing his license twice lol.

Bojan on Facebook:

"I read all your messages and I reflected. Sometimes it happens that you lose your concentration and when it happens, you do some stupid things. The mistake I made got me mad and frustrated. I understand that my reaction may have hurt you, it was not my intention. I assure you that my effort and my respect for Roma and its jersey are at a maximum! It's a difficult moment, but don't give up on us, we'll lift ourselves back up! Forza Roma!"
